        blast it, throw some bondo on it, wetsand, shoot it with some green flake, and then throw some candy on it. Replace all fasteners with chrome.

          You would be surprised what some old vices go for. I've seen some up in the $600-1000 range that at first glance I would say "that is just some old rusty vice."

              Might be cool to blast it and powder coat it with Grandpa's name somewhere. Make it an heirloom.

                  It'll be perfect for cracking nuts during this holiday season! Always hard to crack those Brazil nuts.

                    FYI: Don't hammer on it, if you can avoid it. That isn't an anvil. Mechanic's vises have a flat spot for hammering, but that's a machinist's vise. It's meant to hold material while you work it with a cutting tool, like a file, a saw, or a drill.

                          Definitely an artifact to hold on to, and squeeze every last bit of use out of it.

                            Ok. Just threw some grease in it, worked out the roughness and mounted it. Called it a day. I'm glad I was able to get it. It's the only real memorable tool I can think of my gramps having.

                              Clean it and relube it when you use it. It'll smooth out. Brake cleaner does a good job of getting the old shit out.
